iPhone 6 to include temperature, pressure and humidity sensors?

The iPhone 6 may feature a temperature, pressure and humidity sensor, according to one electronics analyst.

Speaking to Sun Chang Xu, ESM-China news chief analyst, “sources close to the matter” have revealed the iPhone 6 could feature significant new sensor technology.

In fact, the sources suggest that that the iPhone 6 will have much to brag about in the “sensors department”, featuring pressure, temperature and humidity sensors.

However, the analyst was quick to add that the sensors for the iPhone 5S follow-on will most likely not include a blood pressure sensor, as this is something strongly tipped to feature in the Apple Watch.

This means the pressure sensor in the iPhone 6 will refer to atmospheric pressure.

The iPhone 6 is heavily rumoured to launch alongside the iWatch later this year and come with the new iOS 8 operating system.

iOS 8 is tipped to be capable of monitoring various fitness and health stats, including your blood pressure, heart rate, hydration, calories burnt and even your glucose levels.
